I think he's got one or two games' grace. Cardiff was the tipping point for many thousands of people - a game that the team walked...

That account is the biggest pile of shite going.

A group of us had a chat after the game in the pub and pretty much agreed we'd not see him again. I thought this was the majority view that this was his swansong?

So, Russia 2018 and then off to Qatar. FIFA sure can pick 'em. -
Fuck Ryder. Biffa knew them personally.

Apparently Ashley was royally p*ssed off when Kinnear didnt sign any players in two transfer windows and sold Cabaye at a reduced price. So I imagine hes quite happy with the work Charnley is doing. I suppose as long as Charnley is actually spending money we don't recoup then it may be fine. 6 players for the money received on Cabaye and Debuchy deals essentially. Wonder if we plan on spending that 60 odd million TV money we have. Of course not. That's Ashley's take for a fantastic season past.

Official: Daryl Janmaat joins Watford for £7m

Tell that to Paul Ince. -
Foot will definately be off the gas imo... "well we were looking for a couple more but we think we have a good enough squad to see us through to January. This club wont be held for ransom and the market was hard due to the world cup." No doubt we need an established striker though on top of Riviere. We also need a replacement for Mapou if he is off, likewise Hatem. Hilarious thing is we won't have even spent the cabaye and debuchy money if that doesn't happen never mind the 2 lots of TV money. Only not so funny for those paying for the privilege of having to 'assume the position'.

Bloody hilarious, though.

The Mekon would take a sz10...

If we have a poor showing even in just the first game, I really think people will flip. we will have a poor showing considering who we're playing lets face it, but he'll get a pass imo for probably 3-5 home games and then it'll turn if there's a bad defeat again I reckon he'll get if from game one - carrying on where we left off v. Cardiff. No way, especially how poor our squad is likely to be by that time, the troops will give him a pass for a while at least until the window slams shut. OK, I'll recant slightly and say that he'll get a pass until we concede, at best. If we're still playing eye-bleeding football - which we will be - I reckon he'll get about 45 minutes' grace tops. We've not long to wait to find out though. I'll eat an imaginary hat if it turns so soon My point is, it hasn't really turned back at all. If anything, things continue to deteriorate (w*nga was bad enough before it was confirmed they were a criminal organisation, the purposely inept transfer dealings, etc.) so no reason to suggest the support won't continue as before... Sincerely hope you're right I'll be doing my part. I'll get you fitted for that imaginary hat. What size do you take, sir? 7 - 7⅛?

Don't get too excited. I've seen him play about 30-odd times and, while he's a tidy player, he's no world beater. He's worth what we paid for him (c.£3.75m), I reckon. Very, very hard to say what he'll do in the EPL. When I was living in the Netherlands in 2012 for a year, I saw his brother a number of times also, and he looked the far superior player!

We paid the equivalent of about £3.75m for De Jong. Source: senior reporter who covers Ajax for De Telegraaf

It was Zaha, 100%. Source was the head of press at CPFC, whom I know quite well.

The club have a number of shill accounts on FB, twitter and chroniclelive.co.uk - on the latter, user: 'wor noodlebug' was Bendy Wendy herself. She doesn't post any more.

2014 FIFA World Cup Brasil™ - Europe vs. America

His co-commentator had a try but he just ignored him and carried on with his embarrassing indignation. Pearce should get flown home for that. -

He's made a total arse of himself there. Embarrassing. -

I used to live in Qatar and if you'd said that a month ago I would have said 'yes, but in winter'. Now I'm not so sure. Having said that, I did say there was a good chance WC2022 would not be held in Qatar here: http://postimg.org/image/v95c9r05n/ This was November 2011, so I scooped the Sunday Times by 2.5 years.
